HOTSPOT -
You need to coordinate updates and deployment for managed solutions containing completed work without disrupting the system.
What should you do? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Hot Area:

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer:
Box 1: Deploy a patch with the changes made from the current solution.
Scenario:
The Onsite Visit managed solution has a table that is not in the Verification Process Automation managed solution. This table must be upgraded prior to the go-live date without the other shared components.
Box 2: Deploy a full copy of the original solution using the upgrade option. Then, deploy the new solution by using the update option.
Scenario: All components required for the verification process must be included in a new solution.
Corporate security requires that deployments to non-development environments must be automated using service accounts.
Managed solutions are used to move customizations from the development environment to other higher-level environments. These solutions are created and maintained by the power users and provided to internal IT for deployment when they are ready.
Note:
Upgrade This is the default option and upgrades your solution to the latest version and rolls up all previous patches in one step. Any components associated to the previous solution version that are not in the newer solution version will be deleted. This is the recommended option as it will ensure that your resulting configuration state is consistent with the importing solution including removal of components that are no longer part of the solution.
Update This option replaces your solution with this version. Components that are not in the newer solution won't be deleted and will remain in the system. This option is not recommended as your destination environment will differ in configuration from your source environment and could cause issues that are difficult to reproduce and diagnose.

I would choose 1 and 2, not 1 and 3. (using Upgrade for both solutions). The supplied link says update is not recommended... https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/maker/data-platform/update-solutions . This option is not recommended as your destination environment will differ in configuration from your source environment and could cause issues that are difficult to reproduce and diagnose.

The MS link does not say 'Not recommended' any more. Guess they removed it. Just says 'beware' now. My opinion it should be 1 and 3 as doing an Update seems to be a 'safer' option and the question does say it wants to minimise disruption

what i don't understand is why do you do the first part 'Deploy a full copy of the original solution using the upgrade option'. Assuming that after deployment the production environemnt equals the dev envrionment, then you develop new solutions on the dev environment, you basically only need to deploy the new developped items with 1) update deployment with no need of prior 'deploy full copy..." (this would only be needed if you were to create a new environment?) Update: This option has the best performance by typically finishing in less time than the upgrade methods https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/maker/data-platform/update-solutions

Copilot To coordinate updates and deployment for managed solutions without disrupting the system, you can use the following deployment options: Deployment Option for Changes to an Unrelated Table Create a Patch: Use patches to update only the specific components that have changed. This allows you to make incremental updates without affecting the entire solution. Patches are ideal for making changes to unrelated tables as they minimize the risk of disruption. Deployment Option for Automation Enhancement Stage for Upgrade: This option allows you to upgrade the solution to a higher version while deferring the deletion of the previous version and any related patches until you apply the solution upgrade later. This is useful for automation enhancements as it provides a way to test and migrate data before fully committing to the new version. By using patches for minor updates and the stage for upgrade option for more significant changes, you can effectively manage updates and deployments without disrupting the system.

1. deploy a patch. not ideal answer. not recommended by Microsoft and do not make sense when a better answer is use segmented solution and select component to update. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/alm/segmented-solutions-alm 2. wording is bad. eploy a full copy of the original solution and deploy the new solution. use the upgrade option for both deployments NO. Use import solution for first deploymeent and then upgrade for second deploymeent

I would choose Upgrade and Upgrade. Update removes an older version of the solution completely including all data that is stored. So, you never do that... and Patch that is a word used for an older on-premise crm environment. (You may want to use Stage for upgrade but that is not one of the options here)

For the second answer: if it is a 'new (managed) solution' (as in 'not yet existing in the target environment') you will NOT be given the option to upgrade it. The initial import of a managed solution is neither update nor upgrade. If you specify to upgrade a new solution (i.e. using Powershell) the import will fail with a message like 'no base solution exists'. So for me the answers are correct: 1 & 3
